Longines has made an impressive addition to its Spirit collection with the new flagship model, the Longines Spirit Flyback Titanium. This watch updates the original Spirit Flyback with a sleek titanium case and several other enhancements.
The titanium grade 5 case is 42mm x 17mm in size. It sports a bi-directional rotating bezel with a black ceramic insert and a brushed finish with polished accents. The bezel features a 60-minute scale with Super-LumiNova-coated numerals, recessed squares, and a triangle. The watch includes a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, a screw-in crown, a 6-screw caseback, and is water-resistant to 100 meters.
A sunray-brushed anthracite dial is met with gold-colored applied Arabic numerals and hands, coated with Super-LumiNova. There is a gold-colored ring around the sub-dials and inner flange.
Powered by the Calibre L791.4 COSC-certified movement; a modified ETA Valjoux 7753 with a column wheel and flyback function. It is also equipped with a silicon balance spring and has a power reserve of 68 hours.
The Longines Spirit Flyback Chronograph Titanium offers two stylish options: a textile NATO strap or a versatile titanium bracelet with a folding clasp. Priced at EUR 5,400 with the NATO strap or EUR 5,750 on the titanium bracelet, it’s available at brand boutiques and retailers.
